Before deciding what support to offer, listen. What does the teacher already know? What kind of support do they need right now? What are they actually asking you for? Sometimes reflective questions are exactly what a teacher needs. Other times, they need clarity, direct instructional support, or an opportunity to see the work modeled. The goal is not to stay in one coaching stance. The goal is to respond to the need in front of you while continuing to build capacity.
